10 team Yahoo Pro League, standard scoring. My record is 5-4 and I'm in 6th place well within range of the top 4 which are the playoff spots. My team has been bad and lucky to have the record I have right now because Megatron has been out, Matthews has been out, Marshall had a few bad games and a bye, prior to that Ball was horrible for me before I dropped him, Carolina D has been bad, Benjamin had been up and down, Ertz terrible, etc. But now I'm getting guys back like Megatron, Marshall, Matthews will be back soon, Peterson is very likely to be back soon, Josh Gordon will be back in a few games. Well I just traded:

 

Maclin and Ertz for Gronkowski and Smitty. Good trade? I feel I won't need Maclin with Gordon coming back and Megatron and Marshall coming back, even though he's been a stud and Gronk is a huge upgrade at TE. What do you think?

That's a hell of a trade. You strengthen your TE spot with a beast in Gronk and you have Gordon coming back and got Smith in the trade so Maclin isn't that bad of a loss. I think it was a damn good trade on your part.

 

I hope so. Helped him out a lot too, since Smitty was literally his best WR. Also had Gates so that's why I proposed. Only thing is I'm not sure I can trust Marshall in that train wreck in Chicago, Smitty has been bad and Gordon's still 2 weeks away. Atleast Megatron is finally back though. Gronk's on bye this week which hurts... My team looks like it should be really really good on paper but I have like the 4th least points in the league.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
